Trauma from a Trampoline?

PARENTS CORNER: According to Parent's Magazine, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends never letting your child play on them. Injuries are just too common. If you must...it seems that all of the precautions take much of the fun out of being on one in the first place. There shouldn't be more than one child on it at a time, no somersaults or stunts, make sure there is a new around it and of course be sure that all of the springs and hooks are properly covered with shock absorbing pads.
